Hide AdSpeaking after contacting authorities about the problem, Councillor Cooper said: “I received a number of complaints from residents in both Clarence Avenue, Lawrence Hill and Springham Street about the several blocked gullies in the area caused by excess leaves.
“I have received confirmation from Transport NI to say that they will send equipment into the area in the coming weeks to remove the leaves.”
Colr. Cooper added: “Due to the large volume of commuter traffic using the area (which may block access to the gullies for the Roads Service vehicles) the works are likely to be carried out in the early morning before the commuters begin parking in the area.”
